Ethical relativism has been looked at from several different angles by many different people. Louis P. Pojman is one person that has not only questioned, but rejected the concept. Pojman’s argument stands on four objections. His protests are that ethical relativism leads to ridiculous outcomes, gives way to subjectivism, is logically inconsistent, and provides no rational method to resolve conflicts within and between cultures. Pojman theorized that, if the world were to go by ethical relativism, one could no longer make judgements against any society, including their own, because no external or objective truth exists. Any decision or opinion a person makes is based on the society that person has been raised in and, therefore, is subjective.
